Elliott's 9th Birthday Party

 We celebrated Elliott's birthday a couple weeks ago. He wanted to have a couple close friends over and do some laser tag. So, he had Rachel and Jacob over, and then Emma joined them on their birthday adventures. 

We picked up the kids around 5:30 pm, and then headed to Triple Play Card Store. They were having a grand prize drawing event. So, the store was packed. The kids had a lot of fun looking through card and choosing some out. Then, they had some door prizes at 6:00pm. Elliott actually won a door prize, and of course he picked a Pokemon booster pack. But he was so excited he won something. We did not win the grand prize drawing, but each kid got a Pokemon Tin filled with some goodies, and they were pumped. 

After the card store, we went to Fizolis for supper. The kids enjoyed some pasta and breadsticks. Then, we headed home for presents and cookies. After all that excitement calmed down, John took the kids to Galaxy Gaming for 2 hours of laser tag. And I cleaned up and enjoyed a quiet evening at home. The kids loved the laser tag. I guess there were some teenagers there that were cheating, but overall the kids had fun. 

They all got home around 10:00pm. So we let the kids watch a little TV and settle down for the night. The next morning, Jacob had to leave at 7:30 am for hockey, so Rachel, Elliott, and Emma enjoyed some Nintendo and playing time. 

Overall, it was a great birthday party. Elliott really enjoyed himself, and says he wants to do the same thing again next year. We all had a lot of fun, and it was fun to watch Elliott have so much fun.
